This is the best gamecube game ever on a par with Tales of Symphonia. If you want an epic game of true proportions, look no further than this master piece.
AWESOME!!!!

I'm a massive fan of RPG's, having played all the Final Fantasy's and Zelda's and lovin other lesser known ones like Legend of Dragoon and Breath of Fire, i played this one with a pinch of salt...I mean it doesn't sound brilliant....a turn based card fighting system....but i should've put thoses fears aside!!! once you play enough to completely understand how it works (about an hour) it's hard to want to play a game without it....takes intelligence as well as quick thinking to pull off great combos...so leaves you feeling very satisfied when you have defeated a boss. Story is also brilliant, i was immersed for the entire life of this game (about 80odd hours). If you have a gamecube or even a Wii then buy this game....absolutely AWESOME!!!!!
